Biography
Philip Mangano was born in 1898 in Palermo, Sicily, the younger brother of Vincent Mangano. Mangano and his brother later emigrated to the United States and became American Mafia members, and Philip Mangano became involved in New York politics and the International Longshoremen's Association. In 1923, he was indicted on murder charges, but he was never convicted. Mangano became the consligliere (adviser) to his brother, and Albert Anastasia decided to kill the two brothers due to Albert's old-fashioned ways. On 19 April 1951, the two brothers were both kidnapped and shot to death, and Mangano's body was found in the Jamaica Bay marshlands of Brooklyn with one neck wound and two face wounds.
